Capital.

A thick cloud covered the sky over the capital, and the whole city was filled with an oppressive and strange atmosphere.

There are fewer people walking on the streets, and the vendors in the four major markets all close their stalls very early.

In less than two hours in the afternoon, there are hardly any pedestrians on the streets.

Only the patrol battalions patrolling the streets, as well as the forbidden army, were beating gongs everywhere.

The crossbow arrows on the city wall are not only aimed at the outside of the city, but half of the directions are aimed at the inside of the city.

The whole team of forbidden troops patrols back and forth on the streets, and those who dare to fight privately are directly imprisoned, and the fighters can be killed on the spot!

Everyone knows that something big is going to happen!

However, there are some places, no matter how extraordinary the times, there are many people who visit them.

For example, Drunken Immortal Residence.

In a private room in the middle of the drunken immortal, several people sat around the couch, and the atmosphere was also a little dignified.

"Why, do you still regret it to this day?" Shi Weisong, the head of the Jin Palace, looked at the few people in front of him.

All of them were dressed in civilian clothes, but they were not small.

100 households of the forbidden army, 1,000 households of the forbidden army, and even one of the three deputy commanders of the forbidden army, are all here.

There are eight people in total.

A hundred households said: "Lord Wei, what we said before was good, but we didn't favor others, but we didn't say who we wanted to recommend against the grain." ”

"Right now, Your Majesty is still there, we can't change the court, otherwise heaven and earth will not tolerate it." A thousand households also said.

Everyone nodded.

Originally, they were biased towards King Jin, not the kind of allegiance to King Jin, but they just felt that King Jin was familiar with his face.

If they really want to raise troops to support the king of Jin, they are afraid that they will not survive for a few days.

Wei Song looked at Jiang Zhi, the deputy commander of the forbidden army.

"Commander Jiang, what do you say?"

Jiang Zhi put down the wine glass and said lightly: "Lord Wei, this is indeed yours." ”

Wei Song frowned.

Jiang Zhi continued: "Before, you said that Your Majesty would definitely draw up an edict to make His Royal Highness the King of Jin the crown prince, and I only agreed to protect the prince." ”

Wei Song positive color:

"Your Majesty does not have an edict, in such a situation, it is natural to follow the ancient etiquette and law, and appoint the eldest to succeed the crown prince to the throne! Your Majesty only has a concubine of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and it is righteous to protect the King of Jin, how can it be said that it is a great rebellion? ”

This is true.

The crowd did not refute it, because indeed, according to the usual rules, this should be the truth.

It is the right principle since ancient times.

Not only the royal family, but even the families of hundreds of officials and ordinary people are eaten by the eldest son.

As the saying goes, if you don't grow up, disaster begins.

"However, Your Majesty has not died yet."

Jiang Zhiwei said: "Right now, I support His Royal Highness the King of Jin, if Your Majesty eases up, how can we deal with ourselves?" ”

Wei Song narrowed his eyes: "Then let Your Majesty be the emperor!" ”

"Bold!"

Several people were so frightened that their faces turned pale, they didn't expect Wei Song to dare to speak like this, they really didn't even want to do superficial work.

Jiang Zhidao: "You are so bold, it seems that you are sure that Your Majesty will not work, do you have eyes and ears in the hospital?" ”

"That's nature!"

Wei Song said: "Your Highness has already asked the family of Tai Hospital, Your Majesty has no help with the medicine, and now it is time to plan for yourself...... Guys, think about yourself. ”

"King Jin ascends the throne, inherits everything from the previous emperor, there is no need to make a big move, and your future is guaranteed."

"But if other princes take the throne, I'm afraid that they will have to make drastic moves, can you still sit firmly in your current position?"

Wei Song said: "What's more, the eldest husband was born between heaven and earth, and he should make meritorious contributions, is Commander Jiang willing to always succumb to Shi Yu's reckless man?" ”

Jiang Zhi, who was originally a little hesitant, suddenly changed his attitude when he heard the word Shi Yu.

Yes, why should a person who doesn't understand military formations, or even have not fought classic victories, be a close minister of the Son of Heaven who commands the forbidden army?

And I still have to work hard for qualifications?

Jiang Zhi naturally disagreed with Shi Yu and was not satisfied with the status quo, otherwise he would not agree to favor the Jin King's faction.

"Then what does Your Highness want to do?" Jiang Zhi said tentatively.

Seeing Jiang Zhi ask like this, the other people were also silent and did not refute again.

They were originally Jiang Zhi's people, and they followed Jiang Zhi to serve together, and Jiang Zhi naturally didn't say anything when he opened his mouth.

"Your Highness needs Commander Jiang to lead the forbidden army to hold the imperial city, and before His Majesty's funeral, no one can collide with the holy car again! Nor can it, let the thieves take advantage of the weakness to enter ......"

Jiang Zhi immediately understood.

This is to put Your Majesty under house arrest.

is afraid that His Majesty will wake up, in case he still has the strength, and then say a candidate for the prince in public, and King Jin will be disappointed.

As long as His Majesty goes, it is not artificial, and there is a natural transition, then the throne will definitely fall on the head of King Jin.

"Shi Yu is in the palace, I lead the troops to guard the imperial city, what should I do if he opposes it?"

Jiang Zhidao: "Although Shi Yu is reckless, he is too strong, and thousands of people are invincible, what if he falls to others?" ”

"Commander Jiang, rest assured, His Royal Highness will talk to Commander Shi, at least he can turn a blind eye, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to hurt His Majesty, he won't disagree."

Wei Song Road:

"Your Majesty can't see it, even if Shi Yu is loyal, he has to think about his future future, right?"

"As long as no one assassinates Your Majesty, Shi Yu will definitely not be willing to make a fuss out of nothing, and there are many people in his Shi family who have taken official careers!"

Jiang Zhi nodded slowly, and secretly glanced at a thousand households.

The thousand households said:

"Then Lord Wei, how will His Highness promise Commander Shi?"

"You said here that you can give us Jiang Commander the future, and promise Shi Yu benefits...... Hehe, which statement is true? ”

Wei Song glanced at Jiang Zhi and saw the way he looked around at the scenery.

Then he said: "Commander Jiang and this brother can rest assured, Shi Yu is a close minister of His Majesty after all, His Royal Highness is not embarrassed, in the future, the Royal Feather Forest Army will be formed, let him be a commander in the past......"

Royal Feather Forest?

It is also a kind of forbidden army, but with the addition of the word royal, it is generally an idle soldier who is nurtured.

With the emperor's grace, life is good, and the long-term cultivation of loyalty to the royal family is the last reliance for the royal family.

But since ancient times, the Royal Feather Forest Army has mostly been a symbolic status.

Many retired generals, or those who made mistakes, would go there to be on duty, giving the emperor favor without affecting the affairs of the army.

Even the Royal Yulin Army does not live in the capital, and is generally raised in the West Mountain or South Mountain outside the capital.

The emperor of this dynasty did not form the Royal Yulin Army, and in order to quell the chaos during the first emperor's period, the Royal Yulin Army has been defeated.

So if it is formed again, there is also an ancestral system.

"That's right, General Shi has worked hard for half his life, and it's time to be nurtured." The thousand households who asked the question were satisfied.

Jiang Zhi also nodded.

Seeing that the matter was done, Wei Song smiled and said, "Then, today's appointment has been reached, everyone...... Please leave your name on this covenant. ”

As he spoke, Wei Song took out a silk silk, and had already written the text of "Covenant", leaving a large piece at the place where he signed off.

Jiang Zhi frowned suddenly, if this is left as evidence, there will be no chance to change it.

If things fail, there is no other way out.

Several other people also looked at each other, all a little hesitant.

No one said anything, after all, this kind of thing has been a secret alliance since ancient times.

If you don't sign, why do people believe you?

If you don't sign, you will have a way out, you will be left and right, and the risk will be borne by me alone?

If you want to seek a prosperous future, you have to pay a price, this is a truth since ancient times!

"How do I sign it?" Jiang Zhi thought for a while, and then took the lead and asked.

"You don't have to leave your name, you just need to have a fingerprint." Wei Song took out a box of ink clay that had been prepared a long time ago.

After all, some generals and officers in the army are really uneducated, and there are also illiterate ones.

……

Harem.

"I don't know what the mother is summoning, what's the matter?"

Shi Yu's heart was like a mirror, but when he looked at the queen sitting in the Zhengyang Palace, he still pretended to be simple.

After all, that's what he's always been like.

The queen gave a look, and the maid closed the door.

Shi Yu frowned: "Niangniang, this is not in line with the courtesy, and the minister will retire." ”

With that, he turned around and left.

Suddenly, King Jin walked out from behind the screen: "Aiqing, wait!" ”

Well?

Aiqing?

Shi Yu turned around and saw King Jin, who walked down the steps with a warm smile on his face.

It's just that Shi Yu's eyes are full of indifference.

Aiqing ...... Is that what you can call too?

The queen smiled: "General Shi, don't get me wrong, this palace is not ignorant of etiquette, and there are palace maids and King Jin here to testify, so there will be no bad words to pass on." ”

"It's just that today, General Shi should understand that those who know the times are Junjie......"

King Jin smiled and said, "Mother's words are too straightforward, and Commander Shi is not a stubborn person, how can he be treated like this?" ”

He looked at Shi Yu with a warm smile, which made people feel like a spring breeze.

"Your Highness......"

Shi Yu arched his hand: "The minister is a rough man, he doesn't know what the truth is, and he still wants to say it clearly." ”

The king and queen of Jin frowned slightly.

No matter how stupid you are, we both stand in front of you and talk to you in private, don't you understand?

The queen is the color of the road:

"Well, this palace will make it clear!"

"Commander Shi, you have 80,000 forbidden troops in your hands, and you are the number one warrior in the world, and now Your Majesty's life hangs by a thread and there is no prince on the throne...... There will definitely be a storm in the future, and this palace wants you to stand up for righteousness and support King Jin as the new emperor! ”

Shi Yu raised his eyebrows and laughed secretly.

The queen's operation is not surprising.
